UFO Article (Blog): “Australian UFO Science? An internal personal view from a member of the WRE Radar & Electronic Tracking Group (1971)”

By Bill Chalker, 2 July 2017

(The OZ Files, Sydney,
Australia)

Quote from the article:

“The evolution of Defence Science in Australia has
from time to time thrown up some interesting intersections with the UFO
controversy. In my previous post The Joint Intelligence Organisation (JIO), the
Defence Science & Technology Organisation (DST), the Sea Fury Encounter
and UFOs I provided a link to my earlier research (2007 - 2008) on the JIO
involvement and the legacy of Harry Turner. Part of this was also described in
my Australian chapter contribution to the UFO History Group book ‘UFOs and
Government’ (2012). Both described some of the material that I found in the UFO
files of Harry Turner he kindly shared with me:‘Other omissions in the JIO file released to Keith
(Basterfield) may have been due to typical file attribution effects and file ‘borrowings,’
sensitivities about the material or other matters, rather than any inherent
substantial content. For example there is a Department of Supply internal
memorandum from the Radar and Electronic Group: ‘Regarding Recent Symposium on
UFOs’ which discusses the 1971 ANZAAS UFO symposium. Another describes a
sighting by crew of an ANL ship off PiponIsland in 1966. Other
similarly miscellaneous content may lurk in other agency files and their
presence in the papers of a JIO scientist may be just due to a variant on the ‘lightning
rod’ principle.’ ”

“The Joint Intelligence Organisation (JIO) was an
Australian government intelligence agency, responsible for the analysis of
defence and foreign intelligence. The foreign intelligence assessment functions
of JIO were assumed by the Office of National Assessments (ONA) in 1977 and the
JIO was fully replaced by the Defence Intelligence Organisation (DIO) in 1990.
The JIO was staffed by civilian officers of the Department of Defence, foreign
service officers of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and service
personnel from the Australian Army, the Royal Australian Navy, and the Royal
Australian Air Force.[1]The JIO also maintained the National Assessments Staff
(NAS) which supported the National Intelligence Committee (the predecessor to
the National Intelligence Coordination Committee) until 1977 when it was
assumed by the Office of National Assessments. The NAS was responsible for
preparing long–range analytical assessments of international issues.”

Alfred Røsberg, Norway (Scandinavia)

In the course of videotaping U.S. and international TV documentaries, reports and news reports – I have found (and video copied) a large number of anomalous flying objects in these TV broadcasts. In this UFO blogspot I will report on UFOs found in TV broadcasts (TV footage). I will also inform about any UFO evidence recorded or obtained by a media company or government source from around the world. In addition – I will report on the best Norwegian UFO cases.
